67 S wheel upgrade
i recently aquired a pair of 7R Inspired off set 15 " rims from www.group4wheels.com
i got them in the RAW unfinished state & decided to do my own finish along with a pair of deep 6 Fuchs to go on the front.
group 4 wheels 7R rim in its RAW finish.........................
next steps are.
1-polished lip
2-glass bead blast
3-tape off-prime-paint-clear coat..
naturally there are more than one way of acheiving a similar look
FINISHED LOOK
some people like to send the wheels out to a restorer for this ,
i choose to do it myself...
next step...... mount Toyo Proxes tires 205/50/15
previously i was running a set up of 5.5 " rims up front & deep six in the rear...with 195/55/15 tires.
the new set up looks visually quite similar ,yet allows me a wider track & wider contact patch with a more aggressive tire
now the 7R looks like the deep 6 from the outside-the difference is the extra 1" on the inside-naturally this will have an effect once the wheels are mounted on the car !
A 0.5" spacer on the rear solved the tire rubbing on the spring plate issue ...
the 205/ 50/15 series tire size solves any fender lip rubbing issues.

final ride height ,alignment & camber set up will made after the suspension upgrade...........
